Cuttin down O'Tannenbaum

Thursday-November 29 (a bit behind in the bloggin)We went for our annual trip to cut down the perfect tree! We found Martin's U-Cut last year-and LOVE it! They have lots and lots to choose from and the people who run it live there-and are so sweet. They have a wreath shop out of their garage and have free hot cocoa and cider and give candy canes to everyone. We found the perfect tree not long after getting there. Even though Bekah had her heart set on getting a small tree (translated: a twig) We did finally convince her that we had to get a big tree to put a star on top and put presents under-and I told her we would put a little tree on her side table by her bed. Bekah by one of the small trees she tried to convince us was "just right".Topher LOVED this activity-he was having so much fun finding all the trees and trompin around in the mud and the rain.Chad by his victim. So proud!

Such a fun tradition!
